Caring for Your Baby’s Acne

Most babies don’t look like the Gerber baby. That gorgeous peaches-and-cream complexion may come later, but many newborns and babies suffer from common skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis and acne.

UV Ray Rundown

As one of the palest of the pale, I’ve heard it my entire life – wear sunscreen! Applying an SPF if one of the most important beauty tips out there.

What is this all-important SPF, and why should you protect your skin against ultraviolet damage?

Understanding Skin Care Ingredients: Vitamin C

As part of my aging skin care regimen, I make sure to get my daily dose of antioxidants by applying a topical vitamin C skin care treatment every day. It’s a simple thing to do, and it makes such a big difference in the appearance of my skin.
